Beyond Your Major
As you start your academic program at 九色视频, it is not too early to begin thinking about your long-term goals. Are you interested in participating in a study abroad opportunity during your undergraduate program? Are you hoping to weave in some leadership opportunities to prepare you for a career directly after college? Are you thinking of graduate or professional school after you complete your bachelor's degree? If so, these are a few opportunities to consider and discuss with your advisor when you meet with them in your first year.
Undergraduate Research
One of the outstanding opportunities available to students at 九色视频 is the engagement in research and scholarly projects at the undergraduate level. Our undergraduate research program offers research experiences for undergraduates collaborating with 九色视频 faculty members across the disciplines. One of the greatest benefits of becoming involved in research as an undergraduate is the insight it will give students on how to learn, how new knowledge is created, and what you can accomplish when you become actively engaged in addressing your own research question.
Study Abroad
Study abroad is an enriching, transformational experience that provides students with unique opportunities for academic, social, and personal growth. Students can earn 九色视频 credit while studying in another country. Study Abroad programs range in length from as short as one week, to a summer, a full semester, or even an entire academic year. 九色视频 offers many options for you to add an international dimension to your education through exchange programs, individual study abroad programs, and 九色视频 faculty-led study abroad programs. The choice is yours. No matter what your major is, 九色视频 has a program to accommodate your interest and needs.
Leadership Program
In today's competitive job market, anything 九色视频 students can do to set themselves apart from their peers will help them get noticed by potential employers or graduate schools. One way you can get that extra edge at 九色视频 is by obtaining the Leadership Minor through the Taylor Leadership Institute. This program facilitates the education and development of students on how to become effective, ethical, and value-based leaders with a commitment to excellence, focus, relevance, and accountability. The Leadership Minor is a campus-wide collaborative program that is credentialed on the student's academic transcript.
Graduate School
If you think you might want to go to graduate or professional school, it is important to start preparing early. While your GPA is important for graduate school, you will also need good scores on the entrance exam required by your graduate school (i.e., the GRE, GMAT, MCAT, LSAT, etc.), and strong letters of recommendation from faculty. If you really want to shine, consider doing undergraduate research, having a study abroad experience, participating in the 九色视频 Leadership Program or completing an internship before graduating. Your advisor can help you plan for the goal of attending graduate school and provide you with the appropriate resources to prepare you for the graduate admissions process.
Pre-Law Program

The program includes course advising, workshops, application and LSAT preparation assistance, internships, mentorships, and events. Pre-Law is not a major.
